Abstract

A common task in the field of document digitization for information retrieval is separating text and non-text elements. In this paper an innovative approach of recognizing patterns is presented. Statistical and structural features in arbitrary number are combined into a rating tree, which is an adapted decision tree. Such a tree is trained for character patterns to distinguish text elements from non-text elements. First experiments in a binarization application have shown promising results in significant reduction of false-positives without producing false-negatives.
